C55 Uninvited Guest
Qi Jincheng jumped off the bed and strode out of the room, leaving Su Xiaoxiao alone in the room.
After he left, Su Xiaoxiao's drunkenness disappeared in an instant.
She opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling blankly.
In the project that Old Master Qi and his mother worked on, there was obviously a problem with the data.
She seriously suspected that he was the one who had killed her mother.
With the hatred for her mother present, Su Xiaoxiao was temporarily unable to face Old Master Qi with a smile.
To make her pretend to like him with a silly smile, then hold his arm and act like a spoiled child and ask him for food, Su Xiaoxiao could not do it for the time being.
She needed time to calm down.
Looking at the beautiful lamp on top of her head, Su Xiaoxiao's mind was filled with the love of her mother.
Even when her life was at its worst, she did not lose her gentleness. Instead, she patiently told her stories after being wronged and mocked countless times.
Her mother once said that Xiaoxiao was a pearl covered in dust. When she returned to her real hometown, she would be able to shine.
Tears silently flowed down her face.
At this moment, footsteps could be heard from outside the door.
Su Xiaoxiao wiped the tears off her face and continued to pretend to be asleep.
The door was gently opened and the footsteps approached from afar. After a rustling sound, someone sat down beside the bed.
"Xiaoxiao?"
That person called out a few times and Su Xiaoxiao slowly opened her eyes.
She narrowed her eyes and looked for a long time before she saw who it was. "Grandma?"
Su Xiaoxiao's voice was hoarse. She blinked a few times but could not resist the sleepiness and fell asleep again.
But the grandma of Qi family quickly called her again, "Xiaoxiao, don't sleep yet."
Grandma Qi picked up the medicinal soup on the table, picked up the spoon and stirred it a few times. She scooped up a small spoonful and fed it to Su Xiaoxiao's mouth.
There was a rich medicinal fragrance at the tip of her nose. Su Xiaoxiao frowned slightly and did not want to drink it.
The old man's soft voice persuaded her by her ear, "This is a decontamination medicine. If you are drunk, you will have a headache when you wake up."
"Little girl, be good. Drink these and then sleep."
Out of the blue, Su Xiaoxiao opened her mouth.
She drank the medicine that the old man fed her with spoon after spoon.
The bowl of medicine was quickly emptied. Grandma Qi then put away the bowl and spoon, tucked her under the blanket, and stood up.
"Go to sleep, girl. No one will disturb you."
Seeing Su Xiaoxiao close her eyes, Grandma Qi slowly walked out.
The person on the bed tilted his head and watched the old man walk out step by step. Finally, he closed the door quietly. In the corridor, the footsteps gradually faded away.
Su Xiaoxiao's tears silently fell again.
Such a pair of old people, was it really the murderer of her mother?
The birthday banquet continued all the way until night. Around six o'clock in the afternoon, the two old men could not take it anymore and left, leaving the banquet completely to the young people.
It lasted until nine o'clock at night before the guests completely dispersed.
At night, Qi Hanyi asked the driver to send Su Miaomiao home while he stayed behind to take care of the aftermath with the servants.
Using the excuse of being too late, Qi Hanyi stayed at the old residence tonight.
After sleeping until midnight, Su Xiaoxiao was forced to wake up at night.
She rubbed her sleepy head and walked step by step to the bathroom.
Qi family's old residence was silent. The maids seemed to have gone to sleep too.
There was only a very low light of the night light illuminating the corridor. Su Xiaoxiao used this light to find the bathroom and used the cold water to wash her face. After washing away the heavy makeup on her face, she finally felt a little more awake.
Facing the mirror, she looked at that beautiful face and was a little stunned for a moment.
Everyone said that this was a face that was almost the same as mother's.
Only she knew that there was still a gap between her and her mother.
The gentle temperament on her body was something that she would never be able to imitate.
Su Xiaoxiao knocked her head as she slowly walked back to her room.
When she opened the door, she saw a warm light on the bedside table. It was the bedside lamp.
Her hands suddenly tightened on the door and Su Xiaoxiao's expression did not change. She yawned and pretended to not wake up before slowly closing the door.
After closing the door, Su Xiaoxiao ran away.
Even though her head was dizzy, she still remembered that before she went out, she did not turn on the lights at all.
When she came back, the bedside lamp was turned on by someone.
This meant that there was someone in her room!
Perhaps when she walked in, there would be a pair of hands covering her mouth.
It was quiet downstairs. The birthday banquet had ended and the guests should have gone home. At this time, who would stay in the old residence?
Su Xiaoxiao ran crazily in the corridor and finally found an empty guest room. She locked the door and hid inside.
She did not dare to turn on the light and curled up on the sofa for the whole night.
In the hazy morning, she only dared to walk out when she heard footsteps and conversations.
Maybe it was because she was drunk last night, Su Xiaoxiao felt dizzy. When she walked, she felt that her feet were floating.
She knocked her head with her hand, grabbed the handrail, and walked downstairs.
Su Xiaoxiao's head was heavy and her feet were light. The scenery in front of her was even swaying. She forced herself to support her as she walked down the stairs. She saw Qi Jincheng standing in the living room with his back facing her.
"Beautiful brother!"
When Su Xiaoxiao was still a few steps away from Qi Jincheng, the scenery in front of her eyes started to spin faster. She felt dizzy and lost consciousness.2
Qi Hanyi looked at the person in his arms in surprise.
The woman was still wearing the dress from yesterday, but the makeup on her face had already been taken off.
The strange combination of fine clothing and plain appearance did not make people feel embarrassed.
The most important thing was that the touch of the subordinates was soft, but their weight was a little heavier than Su Miaomiao's.
The temperature of Su Xiaoxiao's body passed through the fabric and into his hands, scalding hot.
This woman had a fever.
Just as he was hesitating on how to deal with this girl, hurried footsteps sounded behind him.
Qi Hanyi turned around and saw a huge fist smashing towards him.
He was hit in the nose by the fist. At first, his nose was sore, but the pain only spread later.
When he recovered his senses, he found that his nose was itchy. He reached out to touch it and saw that it was red.
Qi Jincheng punched Qi Hanyi in the nose, and while he let go, he held Su Xiaoxiao in his arms.
This morning, he went to Su Xiaoxiao's room.
However, the bedding in the room was messy and the room was arranged neatly. There was no one who saw Su Xiaoxiao.
He asked the servants in the villa to search together. In the end, he saw Su Xiaoxiao lying in Qi Hanyi's arms out of the corner of his eye.
"Ah! Second Young Master!"
The servants who had arrived later saw Qi Hanyi lowering his head to cover his nose. From between his fingers, fresh blood kept flowing out.
She was frightened and quickly took out a tissue from the table and handed it to Qi Hanyi.
The latter took it and used it to block his nose.
The punch just now came too suddenly. His eyes on the bridge of his nose were smashed off. When he looked at Qi Jincheng now, his vision was blurry.
After leaving the lens, his eyes were half-open and his momentum was much weaker.
"Qi Jincheng, are you crazy?"
Qi Jincheng ignored Qi Hanyi's shouting. He even ignored his grandfather and grandmother who had rushed over when they heard the noise. He carried Su Xiaoxiao and strode out of the living room.
Su Xiaoxiao had a fever and needed a doctor.
